MILITARY NOTES.
Personal Mention and Leaves from
Headquarters.

Lieutenant Chas. L. Steele, Eighteenth
Infantry, has been granted fifteen days
leave from Fort Riley, Kansas.
Major Augustus S Nicholson, Marine
Corps, was at the Mare Island Navy
Yard, California, last week, making the
annual inspection there of the marine
guard and barracks.
The order to Colonel Fred w. Benteen,
Major Ninth Cavalry, to proceed to Fort
Douglas, Salt Lake, from Fort Du Chesne,
pending action on his recent court-mar-
tial, is not construed by military men to
have any meaning pointing to the result
of the verdict, but only to give Colonel
and Mrs. Benteen comfortable quarters,
as the command at Du Chesne is in tents
or temporary houses.

that no one likes to take the medicines
usually prescribed. HAMBURG FIGS were
prepared to obviate this difficulty, and
they will be found pleasant to the taste

A DEMONS DEED.
A Young Wife Brutally Murdered by Her
Husband, at Plqua, Ohio. t. t.

HUSBAND, at Riquay Ohio.
PIoUA, o., Feb. ga few weeks ago Mrs.
Ida Beasley, colored, left her husband, Alex
ander Beasley, on account of ill-treatment
and failure to provide for her. Since then
she has been living with her mother, on North
Main street, and Beasley has made several
efforts to induce her to return to him, and
failing, has threatened her life. This morn
ing she was alone in the house with her
young baby and her little brother, mere
child, when Beasley burst through window,
and with common pocket-knife attacked
her with the ferocity of a demon.
The little boy ran screaming to alarm his
mother, who was working at residence but
half a square away The poor woman, on
receiving the alarm, ran home. As she
neared the house her daughter staggered
from the door with the blood squirting from
her severed throat, and fell dying at her
mothers feet. She was carried into the house
and died in few minutes. Beasley, after
completing his murderous assault upon his
wife, ran up the street, gashing his own
throat'as he went, and after going short
distance fell to the ground with his throat
cut almost from ear to ear. He died in an
hour. Beasley came from Plain City about
two years ago, He bore bad reputation,
while that of his wife was excellent. The
scene ofthe tragedy was absolutely hideous,
the floors of the house and side yard and side
wallswere fairly swimming with blood This
Is the fourth case Of wife-murder and suicide
thatihas occurred here within the last ten
years. 1t was found after the murder that

nine counts in the Indictment related to the
fraudulent issuing of receipts for stock which
was not in the warehouse at the time, and
moved that these counts be quashed because
the parties to whom the receipts were issued
knew there was no stock there The indict-
ment specified that the fraud was committed

lently, of stock upon which the warehouse re-
